lockup_detector: Introduce CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR
This new config is deemed to simplify even more the lockup detector dependencies and can make it easier to bring a smooth sorting between archs that support the new generic lockup detector and those that still have their own, especially for those that are in the middle of this migration. Instead of checking whether we have CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR + CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI each time an arch wants to know if it needs to build its own lockup detector, take a shortcut with this new config. It is enabled only if the hardlockup detection part of the whole lockup detector is on.
